My invention relates'to a drier for fabrics, surface of said body and form an annular so and more particularly to a drier'for tubular chamber into which the Y air escaping from fabrics, such, for example, as jerseys, silk, the openings 15 will be discharged so that cotton'and other tubular fabrics. 1 the air will pass outwardly through. the

the fabric A is drawn over the body 10 the the major portion of the moisture being said fabric will be spaced from the outer driven off between the flanges 14.

I would state furthermore that While the illustrated example constitutes a practical embodiment of my invention, I do not limit myself strictly to the exact details herein, since, manifestly, the same can be considerably varied Without departure from the spirit of the invention, as defined in the appended claim.

What I claim is:

A drier for tubular fabrics including a .30

hollow body over which a fabric to be dried may be drawn, and external flanges on said body spaced from each other, said body between said flanges having air outlets through which air Will escape. i
